New Signings

As mentioned in the website preview of tomorrow’s cup tie, the club can now confirm the signing of two newcomers both on emergency temporary transfers until the 6th of January.

Eighteen year old goalkeeper Jack Hamilton arrives from Hearts to provide cover as Derek Soutar recovers from injury while 19 year old midfield player Willie Robertson becomes the latest in a long line of youngsters from Tannadice to move up the A90 to continue his footballing education.

Both clubs have given permission for the players to turn out in the Scottish Cup as well as the Irn Bru League Division Two and both are likely to feature in Dick Campbell’s 16 man pool for the visit of Ayr United, now that approval of the transfers has come through from the SFA.
